Entrée Must Be Selected in Advance

Q: Is it appropriate to ask guests to select their main entrée in the wedding invitation? —Plainfield, New Jersey

A: Most couples arrange to have menu choices or special requests taken by the wait staff at the reception. However, if your caterer insists on knowing a count ahead of time, then the entrée options can be mentioned on the reply cards but not on the wedding invitation.

I have a few friends who included a Save the Date magnet in their wedding announcements. It was pretty helpful - I attached the invitation to my fridge using the magnet provided, and then on the day of the wedding, when I was scrambling to get out the door on time, I was able to quickly locate the invitation for directions. For my Save the Dates, I did a postcard. However, I still like the idea of including a magnet in the actual invitations. My invitations will have a pocket for the RSVP card, and I was thinking of including a magnet of my fiance and I there. Would this be OK, and if so, what would be the proper wording on the magnet at this point - would "Save the Date" still be OK?
